maruse

@Cobalt I don’t see how ports are the only games on Switch. As far as I know there are plenty of new games and then some more. That you don’t think they’re good enough for you is not a Nintendo’s problem. It is your problem.

Your arguments always amaze me because they have little to no sense more often than not.

@Cobalt Oops... I remember when I had my SuperNES and I was disappointed because Golden Axe wasn’t on it... <shrugs>

I don’t get what’s your problem with ports. If you don’t care about them, just ignore them and let those who do care enjoy them. It couldn’t be easier.

@Lina-MG Sure... you say potato; I say pot-ah-to. Both taste the same though.

It was good actually. Even if I don't care much for Smash Bros., it was fun to watch.

Same tracks as the Japanese version?
I guess it’s easier for them to just release a straight version but some of the tracks doesn’t make any sense outside Japan.

I mean, tracks like the Japanese version of TT or the song from back number (is that band even known outside Japan?) but specially Hikakin’s YouTube song... they’re all fine in Japan but make little sense outside...

I said it yesterday and I'll say it today again
I REALLY want a Luigi's Mansion game that looks like that!

I want a Luigi’s Mansion game that looks like that intro.

@Lina-MG I never said Flame in the Flood is roguelike... just that it was a very bad purchase.

Enter the Gungeon on the other hand, I don't know if it is a roguelike or not and don't care much anyway, but it is classified as one everywhere, so...

The game looks stunning and I'm very tempted but, honestly, I really dislike rogue-likes and procedurally generated levels.

I bought Enter the Gungeon on a whim last week because it was on sale and I couldn't regret it more. I dislike everything about that game, it has become the worst money spent ever (along with A Flame in the Flood)

If Dead Cells is as difficult and pointless as Enter the Gungeon I'll pass. I'd rather spend that money on Guns, Gore and Cannoli 2 or the All-in-One DLC for BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle...

@Big_Ounce I don’t think it has anything to do with hate. I don’t care about Smash in the least but I don’t hate it and I don’t hate Nintendo giving more info about the game.
But people are disappointed because, as of late, there is nothing but Smash, Smash and more Smash.
We want to know if there is actually something for the rest of the year besides Smash and Pokémon.
So, instead of yet another dedicated Direct for Smash, they could have make a general Direct showing what they’ve got for the rest of year and give Smash some minutes in that Direct.
Obviously, that this Direct is focused on Smash doesn’t mean that we won’t get another Direct down the line, but knowing nothing besides Smash is disappointing.
So, it’s not hate, just disappointment.

I really love this game and I’m definitely buying the All-in-one pass for the DLC but I’m waiting for an Arcade mode. The Survival mode is nice but I’d love proper arcade mode. There’s even a space reserved for it in the main hall! Is that just decoration or are they planning to add it down the line?

Do we actually need more info about Smash Bros after the almost 30 minutes from E3? Specially a full Direct dedicated to it?

I want to see what Nintendo has planned for the rest of the year besides Smash Bros., but it appears they’ve got nothing beyond that as much as they keep saying that the full lineup for the rest of the year haven’t been revealed yet.

It’s be great if I were a Smash fan, but this is the Nintendo IP I care the least about, so the later half of 2018 is totally barren of new (Nintendo) games for me.

Still playing Octopath Traveler almost exclusively.

Really looking forward to this!!!! With this in September and My Hero Academia in August I couldn’t be more pleased

@R4z0rGr1nd3r Japan allows child porn? You literally have no idea what you’re talking about.
And besides, the stream didn’t break any rules because there were no “nudity or sexual content” anywhere to be seen.

And where were all that "nudity and sexual content" exactly?

All those false "morals" that some companies/governments/countries seem to adhere to are so unnatural and hypocritical.

I'd much rather let my kids watch some boobs (even if they're covered by a bikini! Unthinkable!) than letting them see a person being decapitated or disemboweled any day. But it seems that for some self-called "puritans", blood, gore and death are much more tolerable than a bit of "obscene" skin. Disgusting.

@IronMan30 No, it wasn't big. I don't think they're making more than 20000~25000 each week. They're being cautious or they just can't produce more than that anyway.

@C3Mush If I remember correctly, it was announced last year (in March I think). There's even a trailer for it, but after that nothing... It might've been cancelled.

The problem is with the source not with Nintendo or any other company (they have little options available to be honest).

It's the mining companies the ones people and governments should be after.

I'd go as far as compare it with the drug world. To solve anything (if that's even possible) you need to target the producers/sellers not the buyers.

I'm not saying that Nintendo should be more selective with its providers though, but putting the blame on them is absurd.

@IronMan30 It had low numbers because there weren't more units available. It sold out.

@C3Mush I know it’s already out every where else... I meant on Switch

I feel like I've been waiting like forever. So much that I even all but forgot about this game until today... just like with Zombie Vikings, another game that is nowhere to be seen and there are absolutely no news or updates about it.

Why would anyone actually want touch controls in this game?
Even on the 3DS I never use the stylus because it obscures my view and it is very easy to touch a block you didn't want to touch.
Buttons are immensely better in my opinion.

Bandai Namco really need to patch the game as soon as possible to address all the problems when playing with detached Joy-Cons. The game is still very much playable but there are A LOT of false inputs like registering a full movement even if you only moved the Joy-Con just a little bit or confusing one movement with another... As it is now, it is very difficult to get proper combos, although the game is still lost of fun if you just want to burn some stress.

Day one for me. Even though I really suck at fighting games, it is one of my favorite genres. Between this and BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle I'm extremely happy... Though I'd be happier if we were to get Soulcalibur VI...

@Heavyarms55 The characters do have conversations among them from time to time.
Haven't you noticed the "push + to open party chat" that sometimes appear when in towns?

@Cobalt A turn based game doesn’t need anything more than 30fps. What would add 60fps to it? Nothing in my opinion.

And that blur effect is anything but “disgusting”. It’s what makes the game special with its tilt shift or miniature effect. The game looks like a diorama and that’s awesome.

I’m playing on a 55inch 4K TV and it looks gorgeous. I didn’t even know it doesn’t run at 1080p...

@PhilKenSebben I bought a New 2DS XL just for Samus Returns (I’ve never own a 3DS before). I never regretted it though I’ve just played Luigi’s Mansion Dark Moon and The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds besides Samus Returns... Only 3 games, but 3 amazing games

Octopath Traveler is taking all my gaming time completely. I'll buy Enter the Gungeon and probably The Flame in the Flood because they're on sale but I highly doubt I'll be playing them for the foreseeable future

@May_Nyan I'm not a lawyer nor a law maker. I just know that he broke the law, so he got that himself.

There are way more unjust and horrible laws to worry about than a company protecting its trademarks, there's nothing unjust about that.

That the money that guy made was insignificant it's not the point, and he was probably just kept a couple of hours just for a verbal reprimand anyway. There are definitely other better ways to make money than to use other people's branding.

But I'll leave it at here, I'm not trying to turn this into a political debate or something.

@May_Nyan Well, it is illegal so... there’s nothing to argue here to be honest.

@May_Nyan He wasn’t arrested for modifying his own personal device. He modified and sold devices for profit using Nintendo branding without the required permission and that’s what got him arrested. It wasn’t modifying the devices per se, it was selling them as Nintendo products with Nintendo branding.
If you can read Japanese, it’s written on the last paragraph of the Yahoo’s Japan article.

@Cathousemaster Really? I live in Japan and I see people playing on Switch on the train, at shopping malls and restaurants... Obviously they’re not as many as those playing on their 3DS or phone but still I’m seeing plenty of them out there.

@Krisi I’m also very concerned about Game Freak preventing multiple accounts on the same Switch to be able to play the game.

That would be a total deal breaker, making impossible for me to buy the game.

Started with H’aanit, then added Ophilia, Cyrus and Tressa. Now I’m in the middle of Oberic’s first chapter.
The random encounters might be annoying sometimes but I’m loving this game. Definitely one of my favorite Switch games so far.

Well, this is a game I won’t be buying.
I could understand (not approve but understand) the download if the games were bigger than 16GB, since 32GB seem to be very expensive... but they are less than 16GB. This is just a cheap and dirty move, and they have lost a sale because of it.

Hollow Knight deserves all the praise it can get. It is one of my favorite games of all time.

I’m loving this game even if I’m not a big JRPG fan. This game just has something that keeps calling me back to it constantly. I can’t play anything else right now.
I put it among the best games that the Switch has to offer and an absolute must buy for anyone even remotely interested in JRPGs. An absolute jewel.

Love the art style. I might pick it up when/if it releases on the Japanese eShop.

@Cobalt Man, you really have got a gift for alienating people against you with your comments.

I’m completely sure that you don’t do it on purpose, but the way you write it (even more that what you actually write) makes people react in a negative way. I think you should try and write with a less aggressive tone or try to be a little bit more diplomatic. I don’t know... it’s hard, I guess, but much better than making a comment and getting lots of angry responses... Being part of a community means that opposing opinions are going to happen, but knowing when to retract or stop is required to keep the community healthy.

About your argument with @JaxonH about Switch being a portable or a console... I must agree with JaxonH here so I have a question for you: does being a console prevent it from being portable? Or being portable stops it from acting like any other console? Switch is both and the same.

Presenting it as a console that you can take on the go or as a portable that you can plug into a TV is saying exactly the same thing in a different way.
It’s like trying to argue that 1+2 is different than 2+1... Meaningless semantics.

@electrolite77 I don't know for sure, I've always guessed they are against piracy and hacking for shady reasons... I guess I was naive.

I know they always report about hacking, which is something I don't approve in a site like this, since it only help those who want to hack their systems but aren't sure how to or where to look.

I prefer they would left hacking news for hacking sites.

That part about hacking the system is out of place, isn't it?
Has Nintendo Life change its stance on hacking and piracy? Shouldn't you change your name to Nintendo Hacking instead?

Never trust Amazon. That's a rule of common sense.

Anyway, whatever the reason for the delay might be, I rather wait whatever it takes and get a properly made port than get it now and find out that it's another WWE2K18 instead...

I should have actually went to a store and bought the game instead of preordering from Amazon. Now I've got to wait until Sunday for it to arrive.

@Cobalt It's just an analogy. You lock your door to protect your stuff. Nintendo releasing a revision of the hardware is doing the same thing: protecting their stuff.

""Nintendo rushed the Switch (which is basically just an Nvidia Shield rebodied btw) and they let "their door " wide open...""

Was that hardware bug known when the Switch was being developed? Or was it found recently? (Honest question, I don't know)

""Basically Nintendo made "a commercial" to announce the entire world that you can run pirate games and emulators on the system... :/""

and how's so? I don't see how Nintendo made any "advertising"
Hackers and people actively looking to pirate games were aware because they were actively looking for that kind of stuff.
The "normal" people knew about it because general information sites, like this very site, were the ones advertising it.

But, honestly, I really don't understand how can you be against Nintendo trying to protect its property. It's the obvious, right, and legal thing to do.

Edited: I don't know how to get quotes working properly... I wrapped them like this ""..."" for clarity(?)

@rames05 I'm not accusing you personally OK? So, don't take it that way.

I'm saying that saying piracy is a thing because games are expensive is a way of justifying it, isn't it? That's not make it OK anyway.

Also, the distribution of money in the world is totally wrecked, yes, but that has nothing to do with Nintendo in the least, and don't justify theft. Like I said, if someone is forced to steal food from the market to feed his kids, I'll understand that and even defend him, but someone stealing a game is not in the same league. There's no justification for that.

Please, don't mix the two because poverty and game piracy are different subjects.

@Cobalt So, what would you have Nintendo do, nothing? Should they just give up and let them do whatever they want?
Nintendo is in its right and obligated to fight back in any way they see fit.
Why do you lock your home's door when you go out? Anyone who wants to break in will probably do it anyway so, why bother?

@Heavyarms55 It is not the right move from Nintendo's point of view. It is the right move, period. That it won't stop hackers into finding a different way doesn't mean Nintendo should do nothing about it.

@rames05 So you basically telling me that because a Ferrari is too highly priced and I can't afford one, it's acceptable if I try to steal one?
Food and water are basic necessities, games are not. A game is a luxury that if you can't afford, you just don't buy it.
I'm no telling you that I'm OK with games being expensive, what I'm telling you if that I'm not OK with justifying theft because they are expensive.

One thing I don’t like about this type of games is the procedurally generated levels. All feels random (because it is) and can become frustratingly difficult.
Nothing gets close to manually designed levels.
Anyway, it looks great so I’ll probably end up buying it and stopping playing it after a few hours and pulling the hairs out of my head out of frustration.

I want Soul Caliber... it’s the only 3D fighter that really grew on me. I’m more of a 2D fighter kind of guy.

Never been a fan of Tekken or DOA, but I wouldn’t say no to any of those either.
